That would work for 3 or 4 blade. I do my 2 blade style with a DMT diamond stone kit and a jig. Or check out Three Rivers Archery for jigs to hold 2 blade heads. Some have a pivoting head to keep even contact with the abrasive being used. I also have the 2 file setup that Bear Tracker mentioned. Or look up Ranch Fairy on the web. He has a good demo on sharpening heads. Thanks I'll keep that in mind if I try anything hing other then two blade , and you know it's funny that ole ranch fairy is the ones that has me getting these buzz cuts but I still haven't watched this sharping video YouTube expert

X2 on that same sharpener here. It does an awesome job on broadhead and knives.. Deer camp last year I sharpened everyone's knives and they all cut themselves cause they weren't used to such a sharp knife.. The mini sander your talking about I wouldn't use on a broadhead.. But in the fur shed it's awesome for keeping a quick touch up to keep your knife sharp. But once you lose your edge the other sharpener gets it back..

Depends now dull the object is to start and how much time you have They both work and I have both The precision adjust you can put whatever degree edge you want on a blade The belt one has a couple of fixed angles and a free hand mode if you are good enough to maintain a specific angle The Ranch Fairy broadhead sharpening video is worth watching Last edited by BTLowry; 07/01/25 07:42 AM.
